DCM - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5...

Morning all!

Are you in the mood for a challenging challenge?

Well Kathy has come up with a good one over on the Daring Cardmakers blog.

You need to feature quite a few items on your card, 1 of something, 2 of something else, and so on up to 5 somethings. :)

Here's what I came up with:

Stamps: The Stamp Market - Summer Stems, WPlus9 - Holly Jolly Christmas, Avery Elle - Simple Sentiments
Dies: The Stamp Market - Summer Stems

So we have:

• 5 Merman aqua blue stripes from that ever-so-versatile Christmas stamp set by WPlus9
• 4 flowers from my lovely new The Stamp Market Summer Stems stamps and dies
• 3 sequins
• 2 enamel dots
• 1 sentiment from my trusty Avery Elle Simple Sentiments set

And that's it!

I really enjoyed the simplicity of this layout and it's a lovely way to use the Summer Stems stamps I'd stamped out and die cut ready for use on a project. I have some more left over so watch out for another card appearance from them!

Make sure you check out the blog for more inspiration from the design team and play along if you can. :D

Happy crafting!

I absolutely love the way the aqua stripes make such a fabulous backdrop for everything else! Those flowers look lush!
